SYNOPSIS
use CGI::SSI_Parser;
$CGI::SSI_Parser::recursive = 1;
fssi($filename);
sssi($string);
DESCRIPTION
CGI::SSI_Parser is used in CGI scripts for parsing SSI directives in files or string variables, and fully implements the functionality of apache's mod_include module.It is an alternative to famous Apache::SSI modules, but it doesn't require mod_perl. This is an advantage to those who are using public hosting services. There is a disadvantage, however - the module consumes much memory, and I don't recommend using it on heavy-loaded sites (currently it's being used on a site with 10000 hits, and I consider this as a limit). I hope to get rid of this disadvantage by the time the release comes out (currently it's beta).
SSI Directives
This module supports the same directives as mod_include. For methods listed below but not documented, please see mod_include's online documentation at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_include.html .- config
-
echo
This directive is not fully supported in current version.
- exec
- fsize
- flastmod
- include
- printenv
-
set
This directive is not supported in current version.
-
perl
This directive is not supported in current version.
- if
- elif
- else
-
endif
These four directives are not supported in current version.
Outline Usage
First you need to load the CGI::SSI_Parser module:
use CGI::SSI_Parser;
You need to specify the following when processing of all nested directives is needed (default value - 0):
$CGI::SSI_Parser::recursive = 1;
To parse file or string you need to use:
fssi($filename); sssi($string);
The result is printed to STDOUT.
TO DO
Full implementation of all SSI directives.Optimize memory consumption.
